- Griffonia simplicifolia is an evergreen shrub in the Fabaceae family, that is native to west and central Africa.
- Out of care for the natural resources, we only harvest an amount of Griffonia simplicifolia seed that is less than 70% of the total output in the organic area.

What is CLEANMOOD®?
CLEANMOOD® is a certified organic 5-HTP ingredient sourced from Griffonia simplicifolia seeds. It is designed for functional wellness products that support healthy mood, relaxation, stress balance, and sleep quality. Available in a versatile powder form, CLEANMOOD® is suitable for use in dietary supplements, functional foods, and beverages.
How does CLEANMOOD® work?
CLEANMOOD® delivers 5-HTP, a naturally occurring compound that serves as a direct precursor to serotonin production in the body. Serotonin is a key neurotransmitter involved in mood regulation, stress response, relaxation, and healthy sleep patterns. Because 5-HTP works directly within the serotonin pathway, CLEANMOOD® provides a clear, mechanism-based story for brands building products around mood, calm, and sleep.
What is the recommended daily dose of CLEANMOOD®?
What makes CLEANMOOD® different from other calming or mood-support ingredients?
CLEANMOOD® has a specific, well-understood mechanism. As a serotonin precursor, 5-HTP operates directly within a neurochemical pathway rather than providing broad, non-specific relaxation support. This gives brands a more targeted and substantiated positioning story. Beyond mechanism, CLEANMOOD® is differentiated by its organic certification, glyphosate-residue-free status, water extraction process, and non-GMO verification. It is also the only branded 5-HTP sourced from certified organic Griffonia simplicifolia, which adds a clean-label credential that most 5-HTP raw materials cannot match.
Can CLEANMOOD® be used in food and beverage products?
Yes. CLEANMOOD® is formulated for versatility across multiple product formats. It is water-soluble, neutral in flavor, and positioned as heat and pH-stable, making it practical for use in dietary supplement capsules and powders, functional food products such as bars, powder beverage blends, and shots. For water-based ready-to-drink applications, brands should confirm finished-product stability, as extended aqueous storage can affect active 5-HTP retention over time. CLEANMOOD® has a stated shelf life of two years in its finished powder form.
Is CLEANMOOD® stable in finished products?
CLEANMOOD® is heat stable, pH stable, and water soluble with a neutral flavor profile, which supports its use across a wide range of product formats including bars, capsules, powders, and shots. These properties make it a practical choice for formulation across functional food and supplement categories. For ready-to-drink or water-based liquid applications, finished-product stability testing is recommended to confirm active 5-HTP retention under your specific storage and processing conditions.
Is CLEANMOOD® safe and well tolerated?
Yes. 5-HTP has a well-established safety record in the published literature. It has been studied in clinical settings for decades across a range of populations and doses, with the most commonly noted considerations being GI sensitivity at higher doses and the importance of avoiding concurrent use with serotonergic medications. At the 150 mg daily dose supported by CLEANMOOD®‘s clinical data, 5-HTP is generally recognized as well tolerated in healthy adult populations.
Where does CLEANMOOD® come from, and how is it made?
CLEANMOOD® is sourced from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, a woody climbing shrub native to West and Central Africa and one of the richest natural plant sources of 5-HTP. The seeds are grown under certified organic practices with no synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or glyphosate, and 5-HTP is extracted using a water-based process that preserves the clean-label integrity of the finished ingredient.
